<p>I am not a fan of donating my blood. Yeah, I'm one of those people. But in the past I ran blood drives and had to deal with those of us that were turned away because we had sex with another man since 1977, three years after I was born.</p>
<p>We all know the ban is a little kooky. How kooky? Our friend Matt Baume updates us on the ban, how often we can have sex if we want to be able to donate, and what may happen to the ban under president Trump.</p>
<blockquote><p>Back in the 80s, when the ban was created, it was a best-guess effort to keep blood donations safe since there hadn't been much research yet. But we've learned a lot since then, so does the science support keeping the ban in place?</p>

<p>Do you think the ban will stay the same? </p>
<p>Will the year time frame go back to if you've ever had man on man sex?</p>
<p>Do you give a care, lie, and donate anyway?</p>

<p>I am far from a lawyer, but it seems that Washington state is mixing some things up in a new HB 1101 Bill proposed by<span style="font-weight:bold;"> </span>representatives Taylor, Shea, McCaslin, Young, Klippert, Walsh, Haler, Short, Manweller, Hargrove, Pike, Holy, Rodne, and Buys. </p>
<p>In the bill, subtitled Allowing The Use Of Gender-Segregated Facilities, it seems that everyone is protected within the new proposal.</p>
<blockquote><p>(1) The right to be free from discrimination because of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, honorably discharged veteran or military status, sexual orientation, or the presence of any sensory, mental, or physical disability or the use of a trained dog guide or service animal by a person with a disability is recognized as and declared to be a civil right. This right shall include, but not be limited to:</p>
</blockquote>
<p>and the bill goes on to mention areas where discrimination cannot happen to individuals in #1, nice things like business, real estate, and credit transactions as well as employment and </p>
<blockquote><p>(b) The right to the full enjoyment of any of the accommodations, advantages, facilities, or privileges of any place of public resort, accommodation, assemblage, or amusement;</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Sounds good. </p>
<p>They even take a step in a direction that may cause a little burp (pun intended).</p>
<blockquote><p>(g) The right of a mother to breastfeed her child in any place of public resort, accommodation, assemblage, or amusement.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I guess I can just look the other way. Now this is the part I am a little foggy on</p>
<blockquote><p>(f) The right to engage in commerce free from any discriminatory boycotts or blacklists. Discriminatory boycotts or blacklists for purposes of this section shall be defined as the formation or execution of any express or implied agreement, understanding, policy or contractual arrangement for economic benefit between any persons which is not specifically authorized by the laws of the United States and which is required or imposed, either directly or indirectly, overtly or covertly, by a foreign government or foreign person in order to restrict, condition, prohibit, or interfere with or in order to exclude any person or persons from any business relationship on the basis of race, color, creed, religion, sex, honorably discharged veteran or military status, sexual orientation, the presence of any sensory, mental, or physical disability, or the use of a trained dog guide or service animal by a person with a disability, or national origin or lawful business relationship: PROVIDED HOWEVER, That nothing herein contained shall prohibit the use of boycotts as authorized by law pertaining to labor disputes and unfair labor practices; and</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Does this mean that businesses cannot discriminate against anyone from #1. No more cake wars over gay cakes? That is my interpretation.</p>
<p>What may not need too much interpretation is part four.</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="text-indent:0.4in;text-decoration:underline;">(4) Nothing in this chapter prohibits a public or private entity from limiting access to a private facility segregated by gender, such as a bathroom, restroom, toilet, shower, locker room, or sauna, to a person if the person is preoperative, nonoperative, or otherwise has genitalia of a different gender from that for which the facility is segregated. Nothing in this chapter grants any right to a person to access a private facility segregated by gender, such as a bathroom, restroom, toilet, shower, locker room, or sauna, of a public or private entity if the person is preoperative, nonoperative, or otherwise has genitalia of a different gender from that for which the facility is segregated.</span></p>
</blockquote>
<p> </p>
<p>Part 5 goes on to discuss transgender minor's rights, well, erm, the lack there of just like the adults above. A clear blockage of transgender students from using desired facilities in schools?</p>
<p>For how he bill appears in its proposal form, <a href="http://lawfilesext.leg.wa.gov/biennium/2017-18/Htm/Bills/House%20Bills/1011.htm">head over to lawfilestext for Washington State here</a>.</p>
<p>Is the bill giving us legal protection to shop where we want to without discrimination (part f), but at the same time limiting individuals to restrooms that match their genitals? You'll be able to stick your breast out in public and feed your child, but if you haven't had lower gender reassignment surgery, you will have to use your "birth certificate bathroom?"</p>
<p>We are hoping that those in Washington do not elect to provide protection and rights for some while taking away the rights of others.</p>
<p>We will have to wait and see how Washington will react to this proposal in January.</p>

<p>Look, we all know that even the *threat* of getting hit in the balls can cause us to keel over or at the very least protect our testicles instinctively, but what's the technical reason why a kick to testicles causes pain in your abdomen rather than just your boys downstairs?</p>

<p>How many of you have worn that very revealing gladiator outfit. You know the one. It's the one with not much to it at all. Jay, raise your hand. Did you know that costume could land you in jail? Well we didn't know either until Will X Walters found out the hard way in 2011 during San Diego Pride in Balboa Park.</p>
<p> </p>
<blockquote><p>Deputy City Attorney Stacy Plotkin-Wolff told the jury that police weren’t acting with bias that afternoon, they were merely enforcing the law as they do at every other special event in the city.</p>
<p>She said officers had contacted a handful of other gay pride attendees that day — including a man wearing chaps and exposing his buttocks and a woman without a shirt wearing pasties — and they all agreed to cover up so they could continue to enjoy the festival. Walters was the only one who would not comply, she said.</p>
<p>“The same rules apply to everyone equally,” she said in her opening statements. “Mr. Walters doesn’t believe those rules apply to him though.”</p>
<p>Walters, 35, had worn the same skimpy gladiator outfit in question at the previous <a href="http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/topic/social-issues/minority-groups/san-diego-lgbt-pride-parade-EVFES00000122-topic.html" id="EVFES00000122" title="San Diego LGBT Pride Parade">San Diego Pride Parade</a> and Festival without incident. The outfit, which he had custom-made for $1,000, consists of two loose leather flaps — 12-by-12-inch front and back panels — connected by a waist strap. Depending on movement and angle, the flaps can expose parts of his buttocks, police said.</p>
<p>According to the city’s nudity ordinance, a person’s body parts, including genitals and buttocks, must be concealed by an opaque covering.</p>
<p>In prior years, a 1-inch strip rule allowed g-strings at the pride event. But in 2011, police Lt. Dave Nisleit was the new special events supervisor and changed the rule to a more restrictive definition of nudity for the event, Morris said. - <a href="http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/courts/sd-me-nudity-case-20161206-story.html?utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=flipboard">sandiegouniontribune.com</a></p>

<p> </p>
<p>If the story seems familiar, it is because it has been going on since 2011. We posted on it before in March 2016 <a href="http://instinctmagazine.com/post/gay-man-arrested-nudity-apparent-double-standard-gets-federal-appeals-court-hearing">Gay Man Arrested For Nudity In Apparent Double Standard Gets Federal Appeals Court Hearing</a> and before that in October 2014 <a href="http://instinctmagazine.com/post/gay-man-sues-san-diego-after-being-arrested-gladiator-pride-costume">Gay Man Sues San Diego After Being Arrested For Gladiator Pride Costume.</a></p>

<p><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/courts/sd-me-nudity-case-20161206-story.html?utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=flipboard" rel="gallery-all" title="Walters (right) with his attorney"><img alt="" class="caption image-medium" height="182" src="/sites/instinctmagazine.com/files/styles/medium/public/images/blog_posts/Adam%20Dupuis/2016/12/09/Screen%20Shot%202016-12-09%20at%204.31.32%20PM.png?itok=UlnyaQhi" title="Walters (right) with his attorney" width="325" /></a></p>
<p>What the case boils down to is this:</p>
<p> </p>
<blockquote><p>Is San Diego’s public nudity law enforced the same at the beach as at <a href="http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/topic/entertainment/comic-con-EVFES000165-topic.html" id="EVFES000165" title="Comic-Con">Comic-Con</a>? What about the Mardi Gras block party or annual gay pride festival?</p>
<p>That is the question eight jurors will be considering over the next week, as they listen to testimony in the federal lawsuit that accuses <a href="http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/topic/crime-law-justice/law-enforcement/san-diego-police-department-ORGOVV00029-topic.html" id="ORGOVV00029" title="San Diego Police Department">San Diego police</a> officers of selectively enforcing the nudity law against Will X. Walters at the annual 2011 gay pride event in Balboa Park.</p>
<p>“In this case, the evidence will show Mr. Walters was treated differently,” Walters’ attorney, Chris Morris, said in his opening statements Tuesday.</p>
<p>Not because Walters had done something wrong, Morris said, rather “because of who he was, where he was and what he represented.”</p>
</blockquote>
<p> </p>
<p>Does your community / police crack down on rules and regulations during Pride or does it seem that they "let it all hang out" and allow unusual things to slide?</p>
<p>What will the outcome of this case be?</p>
<p>Walters is asking for unspecified damages for emotional distress caused by public humiliation, wrongful arrest and PTSD. He has racked up about $1 million in legal fees thus far, according to his legal team.</p>

<p>While we all fall under the LGBTQ umbrella, biphobia and bisexual erasure remain a problem within our community. Why is that?</p>
<p>Do people simply question the existence of bisexuality or sexual fluidity? Are people falling victim to their own fears that bisexuality somehow plays a role in an individual's ability to commit to one person or one sex in a relationship?</p>
<p>If those fears exist, why do we feel the need to project them onto the bisexual members of our community?</p>
<p>In this Reddit thread, <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/lgbt/comments/5hc2cl/tw_bierasure_breaks_my_heart/?st=iwi5klih&amp;sh=0c0fc855">Reddit users share their experiences with biophobia and bi-erasure. </a></p>
<p>Here's a compilation of some of the hateful and biphobic rhetoric bisexual individuals are regularly faced with:</p>
<p><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="http://instinctmagazine.com/sites/instinctmagazine.com/files/images/blog_posts/Nigel%20Campbell/2016/12/09/biphobia.jpg" rel="gallery-all"><img alt="" class="caption image-large" src="/sites/instinctmagazine.com/files/styles/large/public/images/blog_posts/Nigel%20Campbell/2016/12/09/biphobia.jpg?itok=x1uvtxkS" /></a></p>
<p>Perhaps we should all take a look to see how our willingness to erase or vilify a group of people within our community feels very similar to the way gay, lesbian, and transgender individuals have also felt (and in many cases continue to feel) in their own lives. </p>
<p>What's your take on biphobia and bi-erasure??</p>
